Conversation

Pull request overview
This PR adds pause/resume support to CancellableFuture and extends it to ProgressiveFuture so progress reporting (and GUI progress display) can be frozen while a task is paused, then resumed without “counting” the paused time.
Changes:
- Added pause/resume primitives to
CancellableFuture(pause(),resume(),wait_if_paused()) and integrated pause handling intoset_running_or_notify_cancel(). - Updated
ProgressiveFutureprogress tracking to freeze elapsed/remaining while paused and re-anchor on resume. - Added GUI-side pause/resume controls for progress display, plus new unit tests for pause/resume behavior.

- This test starts a ThreadPoolExecutor but never shuts it down. If an assertion fails, worker threads can leak into subsequent tests. Shut the executor down in a finally block after waiting for the future to complete.

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Pause and resume can leave acquisition state reporting inconsistent, allow a newer pause request to appear acknowledged prematurely, block indefinitely when no checkpoint is reached, or prevent cancellation before work starts. The PR is not merge-ready until these bounded control-flow and cancellation issues are fixed or explicitly accepted by the owner. 🚥 Pre-merge checks | ✅ 5✅ Passed checks (5 passed)

The variable name _no_need_to_pause_event is a bit confusing to me, mainly due to the negation. Later on in the code we encounter double negation now, not _no_need_to_pause_event, which makes it awkward. I think something like _pause_requested_event would maybe make it way more readable.

I'll try to think of a better name, during pair programming with Éric we first wrote it as pause_requested_event, but that was also confusing.

I went for _run_allowed_evt, when it's set execution may continue / no pause is pending, when it's cleared a pause is requested. Let me know if that still doesn't make sense to you

I think _run_allowed_evt is quite good.
* Add TIMER_INTERVAL_MS constant to widgets * remove check for can_pause in is_pause_requested, as is_pause_requested should not be called if can_pause is False * Remove clipping minimium of elapsed_time to 0, as elapsed_time cannot get smaller than 0 * renamed _no_need_to_pause_event to _run_allowed_evt

Align is_pause_requested with its documented state.
wait_if_paused() sets _is_paused_event before blocking, while resume() leaves _run_allowed_evt cleared until resumption. Therefore, is_pause_requested remains True after the pause is acknowledged. Update the predicate or its docstring to match the intended contract.

Make pause acknowledgements request-specific.
When resume() sets _run_allowed_evt, a second pause() can clear it before the earlier wait_if_paused() call clears _is_paused_event. The second pause() can then return True for the stale event even though the task has not acknowledged the new request. Track an acknowledgement for each pause request, or synchronize the transition with a generation or condition. Add a rapid resume-then-pause regression test.

I find is_pause_requested not an exclusive logical consequence of not self._run_allowed_evt.is_set(). But I can't think of something better. Maybe also negate it into is_running_allowed and remove the not in the return.
It also seems to not be used anywhere? Are you anticipating it to be used in the GUI?

yes, I made a proof of concept implementation here #3557, but I'll check if it is really necessary to use.

These 2 functions are not used here, but in the next PR, you use them in the GUI to synchronize the Future with the Connector. Ideally, the Connector would do this by itself. However, I think there is not enough information on the Future to do so yet. When the Future actually becomes paused, it calls the progress update callbacks, which could almost be enough... but there is no direct way for the Connector to see that the Future is paused. Should there be an extra flag (paused), similar to is_pause_requested, that indicates the Future is on hold?
It would also be necessary to call the callback just after the Future is resumed.
Moreover, you'd want to call the callback also when a pause is requested. IOW, every time the state changes, you'd want to call the progress update callbacks. This way the Connector would be able to to update the state independently, without being told separately that someone has requested a pause/resumed on the Future.
In addition to cancelling a future, this commit adds support for pausing and resuming a CancellableFuture. It is also extended to the ProgressiveFuture. To ensure the progress bar actually pauses, the widgets have been updated with a pause and resume functionality.
PR #3557 shows the implementation for FAST-EM overview acquisitions and FAST-EM ROA acquisitions.
